so a lot of the times when you’re trying

to lose weight on a special eating plan

you can have deficiencies that occur due

to rapid weight loss because some of

that could be water loss and with that

becomes electrolytes so I want to kind

of tell you the four main electrolyte

symptoms that you could have and we’re

going to debug it okay and rather than

tell you the symptoms I’m going to tell

you the four elements and then the

symptoms that could be created in some

of these overlap so you just need to

understand them if the person has low

calcium they will typically get cramps

in their calves legs and feet they will

also get irritable all right so they can

be irritable and get twitching they call

that tetany where you’re getting a

little twitching like that chronic cough

that’s a calcium deficiency and even

depression and sleeping problems but

realize that it could also not

necessarily be a lack of calcium it

could be that your ph your Outland acid

levels are off too because if the body

is more alkaline from drinking more

alkaline water or having digestive

problems or acid reflux or all those

things that which create an alkaline

body or adrenal issues which create an

alkyl body you can’t absorb the calcium

the calcium plugs everything up and be

sure it’s low in the tissue but it’s

high stuck around the joints in the

arteries so that’s that’s just kind of

the deeper reason why you couldn’t

absorb calcium but also if your your

gall bladder your digestion is not right

or constipation you can’t pull in the

calcium calcium is transported with the

fats I love vitamins vitamin d3 and k2

so that could be another reason why the

calcium is low and that would explain

why people take the calcium don’t feel

any better okay number two low magnesium

weak muscles so you feel weaker heavier

when you’re walking hyper irritability

irregular heartbeat a heart your heart

palpitates heart palpates so a lot of

times when you take calcium it’s

automatically coming with magnesium

like a Cal mag or calcium magnesium

supplement that’s totally fine just make

sure that you never take calcium

carbonate that’s bad so that’s magnesium

which could also affect your sleep

hello potassium potassium fatigue brain

fog like tired in the head so here you

start the weight loss program and you

get tired in your head well you need

potassium where does it come from huge

amounts of salads that you’re probably

not eating not bananas bananas don’t

have enough potassium cramping that

could also be in the calves or in the

feet constipation if you’re actually

doing an eating plan and then you

basically start getting constipated then

you would better add potassium feeling

nauseated sugar cravings those are all

symptoms of a potassium deficiency low

sodium well let me come back to this

potassium if you go to the doctor and

get your potassium tracked and it shows

normal that doesn’t really mean anything

ninety-eight percent of all your

potassium is inside the cell not in the

blood so you would have to deplete a lot

of potassium for it to show up in the

blood so you can’t always go up by blood

low sodium when the sodium is what

people are afraid of and they’re worried

about an avoiding and salt but if you’re

low in sodium you will get headaches

fatigue appetite loss nausea fuzzy

thinking so it’s not a bad thing to take

more sodium if you have those things so

I found - it could be brain fog or

fuzziness in the head or tightness in

the head so if some of these cross over

then go ahead and take all of them but I

like that you could take these as a

supplement but also you can take more

vegetables sea salt and this basically

these magnesium is in the grid leafy

greens and calcium is in the dairy like

the cheese type products okay so hope

that helps but that’s the debug for the

electrolytes
